E.J. is an ex-corporate risk manager who has been following her spiritual and creative paths since 1990, when she first moved from Boston to the North Shore. There she began painting landscapes and portraits, and became involved with the Newburyport Art Association. Her path led her from Newburyport to Jamaica, where she spent four years painting and living in the country ghetto of Little Bay with her Rastafarian husband, Prophet. From there she moved to Key Largo, FL where she and her second husband, spoken word poet, Joda Khan, operated Jah Works Gallery and Cultural Exchange Center. When she returned to Massachusetts in 2003, she settled in East Boston where she opened Khan Studio, a gallery, frame shop and fine art printing studio. During this time she also founded and directed 80 Border Street Cultural Exchange Center, a non-profit center for visual and performing arts.
In the fall of 2010, she was given the opportunity to move to lovely Annisquam Village in Gloucester, returning once again to the North Shore where her creative path began 20 years earlier.
E.J. is a painter, photographer, writer, web and graphic designer, printer and framer by trade; and a lover of art in all its shapes, forms and disciplines by nature. She is a regular contributor to popular North Shore blog, Good Morning Gloucester.
Khan Studio is a Gallery featuring her own work, 3d photography by Chris Murray, a special Good Morning Gloucester Gallery of works by Joey Ciaramitaro, Sharon Lowe and Paul Frontiero, two week rotating guest artist exhibits, and economical printing, matting and framing services for fellow artists.
